Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Celeste Beard, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Incubator.

I just noticed that the Lincoln death article (great job by the way, it deserves a gold star) mentions the dream Lincoln was said to have had of his own assassination; however, some respected historians have cited internal inconsistencies and external evidence regarding Lamon's account that lead them to question its veracity. Lamon stated that the incident had occurred only a few days prior to the assassination, yet within Lincoln's monologue he related at one point that the dream occurred "the other night" and also "about ten days ago." It’s also been pointed out that although Lincoln stated in the account that on the night of the dream he "had been up waiting for important dispatches from the front," during the period of March 24 to April 9, records show he had in fact had been at the front, rather than in the White House. There is also records and eyewitness evidence saying that Lincoln and Lamon did not see each other in those weeks. In addition, there was no contemporaneous account of the dream following the assassination. No one mentioned it in the voluminous writings of the period, not Mary Lincoln, Lamon, anyone else at the supposed telling of the dream, or anyone to whom those who heard it may have relayed it.
Additionally, the article contradicts itself at one point by saying “Mary Lincoln developed a headache and was inclined to stay home, but Lincoln told her he must attend because newspapers had announced that he would,” but then says “bodyguard, William H. Crook, advised him not to go, but Lincoln said he had promised his wife.” So basically in one version, Lincoln didn't want to go to Ford's Theater that night (April 14th), but Mary Lincoln insisted. In this scenario, Mary becomes the scapegoat for the murder (like she had enough to deal with already!). In another version, Mary didn't really want to go but Lincoln felt that they must go as it had been published in the paper that they would be attending. Lincoln didn't want to let the public down. Thus, in this scenario, Lincoln was killed giving his complete "all" to the public-even though he wanted to stay home that evening. I'm sure there are other variations of what happened.
By all accounts, the Lincoln's seemed to have been in a good mood, so I am a little surprised to hear someone state that the president didn't want to attend the play, although I'm sure being tired is a good enough reason. Why the belief in Abe's hesitancy to attend? The source for this is William H. Crook. Crook wrote that Lincoln said, "It has been advertised that we will be there, and I cannot disappoint the people. Otherwise I would not go. I do not want to go." This is on p. 67 of Crook's book entitled Through Five Administrations.
I must add, however, that several highly respected historians do not regard Crook as a reliable source. Among these folks are Ed Steers and William Hanchett. Crook's reminisces have been studied and are regarded as not trustworthy. For example, Crook says Lincoln was depressed that day and had promised his wife they would go, but this contradicts the other accounts which describe Lincoln being cheerful that day; even the article has deleted included Crook's observation that Lincoln said "goodbye" instead of "goodnight." Did Lincoln really say "goodbye?" if so, can we really attach that much meaning to it?
The article additionally says that Laura Keene cradled Lincoln's head in her lap in the box. Does anybody know from what eyewitness accounts that comes from? I just want to clarify that I mean from the original witness accounts, not from the numerous books and articles about the assassination, ie who actually said that happened and was it contemporary or written years later? Did Leale mention it in his accounts? I ask because the account Laura Keene gave in an interview to the New York Herald a couple of days later doesn't mention this happening at all. Keene says she brought water to the box and then tried to console Mary Lincoln. As far as I know the Herald interview is the only account given by Keene herself, and being printed a few days later is also contemporary. 80.2.23.127 ( talk) 09:45, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
On 17 November 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article L-8, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

Hi. I see in a recent addition to 1994 South Pacific Airmotive DC-3 crash you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa ( talk) 21:19, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to
Jean Lee (murderer), you added
links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see
Wikipedia's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you.

Hi. I've reverted all your edits to Tiberius. Please read what you've done carefully, before you hit the "save" button. Your changes included one which transfered Tiberius' birth-date to his father (ambiguously and inadvertently, as far as I can tell), and another adding two of his later imperial titles (Caesar and Augustus) as if they were part of his birth-name, which they evidently weren't. Other changes included overlinking of common terms (for which see also the post above this one) and punctuation changes that did not improve clarity or the precision of meaning, but seemed imho to represent change for the sake of change, or personal preference. You're entirely welcome to edit the article, but please follow best practice guidelines. Thanks for reading this, Haploidavey ( talk) 16:20, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

As a relatively new editor with a relatively small number of edits, it's probably not a good idea to edit articles like this, which have been shaped by numerous veteran editors over many years time. Better to edit in non-controversial, non-contentious areas. Best, Beyond My Ken ( talk) 03:37, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

I have seen you have removed the "López de" mentions within the López de Santa Anna article. This is incorrect as I have pointed out in the most recent edit summary. Although some English sources tend to refer to him as Santa Anna, repeating the error here without contempt is not good. For instance, Spanish customs mean that López was his paternal surname and Santa Anna was his maternal. English-language countries such as the US only use the paternal surname, so had him been a US citizen, he would have been known as Antonio López, instead of Antonio Santa Anna. If you disagree, please take this to the talk page. Either we have to use the composed surname "López de Santa Anna" or "López", but Santa Anna is plain incorrect.

Would you like your user page deleted?
